5 cups hot tap water (hot to the touch/hot bath water; not hot enough to burn finger)
2/3 c. oil
2/3 cup honey (nani uses 3/4 cup)
2 tbsp dough enhancer
2 tbsp SAF instant yeast
1 Tbsp salt (after already mixed together)
(bosch recipe says to use 2 Tbsp vital wheat gluten but nani doesn't use)
12-16 cups fresh milled whole wheat flour
Warm water in microwave. Pour warm water into Bosch mixing bowl. Then oil, honey. Add approximately 6 cups flour on top of liquid. Then add dough enhancer, yeast (vital wheat). Use the (M) momentary switch to mix well.
Add approximately 5 additional cups flour and salt. Turn to speed 2. Continue adding flour 1/4 cup at a time until the dough pulls away cleanly from the sides of the bowl (& kinda bottom of bowl). Continue kneading on speed 2 for another 5 minutes.
Oil and grease hands and counter with shortening. Divide dough into 4 equal portions and shape into loaves. Put into well greased pans (nani uses pam spray, can do shortening). Let rise until double in size. Bake 350 degrees for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown on top. Remove from pan and cool on wire rack. Top of loaves can be rubbed with water or butter for shiny appearance. Dough can be used for pizza crust or cinnamon rolls.
*If it's cold, can warm in 180 degree oven.
